Overwhelmed

I finally made it over to my dad's house this afternoon to continue sorting through things.  I can't begin to tell you what happens to me, emotionally, as I approach the driveway turnoff.  It's tough.  But, I do it... overwhelmed and all, I do it because no one else can touch their things or decide what to do with them but me!

Did I mention how hard it is?  I want to keep everything, especially if either of my parents have written on it, but I know I can't.  If I throw something away, I feel the guilt start to set in.

Tonite, my middle daughter sacrificed her time and went over with me so that I wouldn't be alone.  I cannot begin to put into words how grateful I am that she would do that for me.  We had a couple of good cries, laughs and everything in between.  We then went to dinner to finish off our evening at my fav, La Fiesta.  I sure enjoyed having you there tonite, J2! 

I'm drained.  I stayed up way too late last night in order to figure out a video editing program and, even though I overslept for church, I have to say that I'm like a pit bull when it comes to digging into a new project and taking on the challenge of figuring it out!  Tenacity.  Determination.  I can say those are two traits I know I have that can get me into trouble, but sometimes it's worth it!

This week, I have got to make an effort to spend some time with friends that I feel I've pushed off to the side, unintentionally.  Lunches, dinners, shopping and just spending time together is what we need.  However, lately, I'll admit I'm not much fun to be around and I feel so guilty about that.  I think I just need more time and I certainly hope my closest friends can understand that.  Hopefully, there will come a day in the near future that I can see my way out of this place and into the Light.

It's late and I'm exhausted.  Time to go to sleep and try again tomorrow.  So much to do and I don't want to waste a minute of my day.

Remember to show some love to those special people in your life... you just never know.
